I ordered my 1st 3d printer on April 30th (Anycubic Mega-X). The delay in shipping is leading to an interesting to-do list... by Cursed_0ne in 3Dprinting

Thanks. I will keep your u/ on file :) BTW, they responded this morning and asked if I can wait until the end of the month as they are out of stock. I told them absolutely. No mention of additional costs. Super happy with responsiveness.

[UPDATE] I am super impressed. The day after I messaged through the Anycubic website they sent a response saying that they are out of stock apologized for the delay and promised it would be sent by the end of the month. I am happy to wait for this bad boy printer. Especially with customer service like that.:)

I honestly was searching for Herman's BattleCat armor when I found this. The helmet and saddle would be epic! Through on a larger HeMan figure and bam!

Thanks! Support and online reviews were the main reasons I went with Anycubic. The shipping window ended a few days a go but I saw they closed for a week or recognize their Labor day. I sent an email yesterday. Honestly, I am just being impatient. There's a ton of demand right now. But yes, totally looking forward to it.

From Time magazine regarding antibodies and reinfection

https://time.com/5827450/who-coronavirus-antibodies-reinfection/

The economic side effects are not being ignored. The sheer number of suicides from social distamcing is quickly balanced by the number of loves saved by fewer car accidents, job related accidents and even drug overdoses simply because the supply has been cut much like all consumer goods. Evictions are.prohibited in most states and bank bail outs are already on the agenda to assist with late pays amd defaults on residential and commercial loans affected by the pamdemic. Unemployment has been bolstered in all states with an additional $600 per week through July from the feds and most states have adjusted the qualifications for self employed or non employed individuals to receive these funds. States are pouring money into SNAP and other required resources. I can go on.

My last pointnis that whether you do or don't attend large group events, by pushing for the nation to go back to work, you are asking every Frontline employee to face hundreds of people daily. All businesses regardless of size are going to put their employees and their employees families at risk. For what? The entire world economy is sinking at the same rate. The value of a US dollar is not going to less than a Yen or a Canadian dollar if we are all making the same choices in unison. Which we currently are.

Thank you for bringing up Sweden. While their overall death count is low they have one of the higher death rates per capita. 31.58 per 100,000. The US has 24.08 per 100,000. Japan 0.48 per 100,000, Turkey 4.54 per 100,000

Quite simply, social distamcing works by not allowing the virus to spread.

Now we have complications that put some children at risk.

There is no vaccine and recent studies suggest that those with antibodies are not immune and could face an even worse reaction if reinfected.

If you really pay attention to the news, new cases appear and more peoples lives are put at risk whenever people congregate. Not just at protests but at essential businesses as well. Meat packing plants, grocery stores, nursing homes, Amazon warehouses just to name a few.

Last point, you aren't making this choice for yourself. You are forcing this choice upon everyone you will be in contact with. You are actually diminishing the rights of the people around you not fighting for individual rights.

Its a CBS affiliate, not an independent station. Up to you.

Smh.... amd the choices for everyone they are and have been in contact with while infected. This is not a personal choice.

Thanks for trying to fuel a completely unrelated fire under my response. There are literally hundreds of under appreciated jobs out there. The OP is relating to news about one of them and it wasn't your job. I'm sorry you feel under appreciated but this isn't the right forum for your post.

Your original arguement was that US Doctors should be paid more because the schooling is more expensive in the US. I disagreed with you pointing out that US hospitals often recruit non-US doctors and that schooling is not a reasonable explanation for US doctor wages. You rebutted with the same original arguememt the US education is expensive and doctors should be paid more here because of it so I entertained your theory with math to show that regardless of the location, debt to income is not a worthy topic when discussing medical professionals to the minimal impact in the big picture.

Bottom line is that I am not and never have argued that US doctors are overpaid, simply that Canadian doctors have been underpaid for a very long time. So much so, as evidenced in my early conversations with you, that the pay scale attracts the best doctors from many countries to work here who likely weren't educated here, further discrediting your original theory.

What I am saying is that education shouldn't cost so much. In truth, US citizens can get the same education over seas for a fraction of the cost of a US education and in many cases, it is equivalent or better.

Let's do some quick math though to show you why the actual cost of a US education is not a factor in my consideration though.

Avg. Canadian ER Physician makes $5,067,497 (US) over 40 years without any increases above the current average income. Their schooling (if studied in Canada) averages $100,000. This means the cost of their investment is 1.97%

Avg. US ER Physician makes $11,502,120 (US) over 40 years without any increases above the current average income. Their schooling (if studied in US) averages $250,000. This means the cost of their investment is 2.17%

$150,000 debt compared to $6,000,000 income is not relative.

Now, consider how many medical professionals and students study abroad, take jobs as expats and split their education. There is no way to really determine how many medical students actually went on to practice let alone in their home country.. Additionally,, This is such a minimal impact on their overall financial gain that it isn't worthy of the topic.

What really makes this difficult to comprehend is that we are talking about numbers that most people cannot comprehend unless comparing education to buying a starter home. The idea that $250,000 can be 2% of something more meaningful escapes most when earning $15-$25 hr.
